It was a great pleasure to see so many partners at the final MEDINE2 General Partners Meeting in Edinburgh. We had around 95 delegates over the two days, so it was excellent to see so many people.

Throughout the meeting, we had a number of interesting presentations, including those from Howard Davies of EUA, Ronald Harden from AMEE and Alba Prieto-Gonzalez from the EACEA. We received final reports from all of our workpackages to hear about the excellent results and outcomes they have achieved. We also enjoyed good fellowship and active discussions.

The main focus now is on dissemination of results and we would ask for all partners to help in this. If you have the opportunity, please direct people to our website for news on the project activities or to access any of the resources available on-line. If you give any presentations about our work, please inform us so we know what is going on in our partner institutions, and can report this to the Commission.

Many thanks to everyone who contributed to an excellent meeting.

Best wishes,

Professor Allan Cumming

Dear all,

Over the last three years the members of the Workpackage 1 team of MEDINE2 have developed the "MEDINELingua" resource into a comprehensive website containing general medical vocabulary as well as specialized material, resources for language teaching and much more.

http://medine2.com/Public/medinelingua.html

It was a great experience to work together with colleagues from all over Europe, and, most of all, with enthusiastic medical students. We would like to invite you to have a look at the MEDINELingua site and tell us how you like it. We need your feedback and suggestions to make final improvements and additions before the project really ends.

We would also like to invite you to share MEDINELingua with your colleagues and students - ask them to browse through the website and make use of the material. To see what MEDINELingua a is all about and how to use it, watch one of the videos which were produced by medical students at the University Rovira I Virgili in Tarragona/Spain:

Enjoy! We are looking forward to your comments - please send to birgit.heller@medinelingua.eu. Thank you!
